Reiki FAQ
Reiki is a stress relieving technique that promotes healing, purification and empowerment.
It works with the body’s energy system & is based on the idea that life force energy flows through us.
Reiki balances the flow of vital life force energy in & out of the body, healing any imbalances coming from the physical, emotional, mental, & spiritual levels of an individual.
The practice of Reiki originated in Japan in the 1900's and has since become a beloved global healing art.

Is Reiki safe for everyone?
Yes. It is a gentle therapy that’s safe for anyone, including pregnant women, babies and seniors. It is a non-invasive practice with no known side effects. It can complement medical or therapeutic treatments, but is not a substitute for medical care.
How does Reiki work?
Reiki practitioners act as a conduit for universal energy, which flows through their hands into the recipient. This energy helps restore balance and harmony in the body, mind, and spirit.
What can I expect during an In-person Reiki session?
During a session, you lie fully clothed on a treatment table while the practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above your body in a series of positions. You may feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Whatever it is that you need, is what you will experience.
What can I expect from a Remote Reiki Session?
Remote Reiki, also known as Distance Reiki, works on the principle that energy is not limited by time or space. The recipient would lie down in a comfortable environment of their choosing and the practitioner sends the healing. There is no difference in the healing quality in a remote session v.s. in-person session.
How long is a Reiki session/ How many sessions will I need?
My sessions are typically 45, 60 or 90 minutes long. Some people feel benefits after one session, while others benefit from regular treatments for ongoing concerns or deeper healing.
What can I expect after the treatment?
You can find yourself either very relaxed and feeling “lighter” or feeling re-energized. It is not unusual for people to experience a mild natural detoxification as the body adjusts itself to the energy shift. You may also want to rest more, so allow time for that. Most people feel an immediate improvement in their level of pain and energy. It is also suggested to drink some extra water and/or herbal tea so that toxins are flushed out more readily.
